Neymar Told Vasco Fans to Be Quiet


While Flamengo is focused on the Recopa Sudamericana, Santos and Vasco completed the round this Thursday (26) in the Brasileirão. Neymar scored two goals in the 2-1 victory for the São Paulo team, taunted the Rio de Janeiro fans, and paid tribute to Vinicius Júnior, a product of the Mais Querido.

At 24 minutes into the first half, Moisés found a pass to Neymar. The forward sent it to the back of the net and went out to celebrate. In the meantime, he told Vasco fans to be quiet and danced at the corner flag just like Vinicius Júnior.

Shortly after, Cauan Barros equalized for Vasco towards the end of the first half. However, Neymar shone again for Santos. The number 10 found the net at 16 minutes into the second half and secured the victory for Santos.

DID HE IMITATE VINI JR'S DANCE?

Neymar danced like Vinicius Júnior, a former Flamengo player. The move generated great worldwide repercussion due to the racist insults received by the Ninho do Urubu product. Thus, the number 10 paid tribute to the athlete revealed by the Mais Querido.

AND WHAT ABOUT FLAMENGO?

Flamengo, Vinicius Júnior's former team, remains focused on the upcoming challenges of the season. As such, the red-black club faces Lanús (ARG) this Thursday (26) at 9:30 PM (Brasília time) for the second match of the Recopa Sudamericana at Maracanã.
